Is it possible to use a flowpane in the following way? Have two components (img/label) aligned to the left and then multiple buttons on the right. Example:
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
| +------+ +----------+ +-----+ +-----+ |
| | Img | | Text... | | btn | | btn | |
| +------+ +----------+ +-----+ +-----+ |
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
I am adding the buttons for design / ease of use but am running into a brick wall. I would prefer not to have to change the 'holding panel'.
If not can it be simulated in css (float?)
Thanks
A FlowPane
can set margins. Here is an example that shows how to calculate the width of the margin so that the buttons are right aligned.
scene.widthProperty().addListener( ( observable, oldWidth, newWidth ) ->
{
final double spacerMargin = newWidth.doubleValue()
- scene.getRoot().getChildrenUnmodifiable().stream().mapToDouble( node -> node.getLayoutBounds().getWidth() ).sum();
FlowPane.clearConstraints( btn3 );
FlowPane.setMargin( btn3, new Insets( 0, 0, 0, spacerMargin ) );
} );
You basically subtract all the widths of the children of the FlowPane from the width of your scene.
